Any-1 here like, love or have old VW Splits or Ovals??? Anything 57 & older...

Here is my current project I'm working on. It is from august 1953. This hace become a life time project. With a wife, kids & all the things that come with being an adult. They all really take your time & money making it hard to complete.

I would love to have an old restored Westfalia, but not enough to pay what it would cost me.
[Reply]

Yes, love 'em!

You SoCal'ing it, I presume?
I'm more of a combi/camper fan... If I weren't house hunting, I'd be snapping up my buddies splitscreen for resto... well, I would if I could afford it!

My first car was a black 63 bug. Used to love to "race" corvettes on the interstate. With that said, it was no surprise that I got my first speeding ticket with my VW ... 80 in a 70 mph zone. Tought I could talk my way out of it by telling the patrolman that this bug wouldn't go 80 mph.

68 Squareback (AKA, "The stabin' Cabin") with a 2 liter stroker motor, when it wasn't on fire it was ON FIRE! I loved that car and used to run it at the Bug Ins at OCIR a half million years ago. I also had a 65 bus with the reduction gears stripped and and 1800, it was fun too.

Very nice project you have going!

SWEET, if you ever need parts you should always check THESAMBA.COM
You can always find anything & everything you need for your VW... :-)

NICE, I had a 62 bus/truck I sold a few years back. I just did not have the time or $$ for it & it hurt when I sold it... :-)

You should also check out THESAMBA.COM for parts. That is a very similar site to this one(CA) :-)

I still want one of those 23 window buses, or whatever they are called. The ones with all of the windows that open up.

Edit: Here's a link to one. It's just bad azz. http://www.leftcoastclassics.com/1966-vw-21-window-bus/

dead head stickers are a required staple on the ole bugs......back in HS I drove a 68 wagon
[Reply]

Mine had a very old sun/weather beat'n "STP" that is old skool... :-)
[Reply]

I don't have one, yet. Someday... I'd like mine in two-toned baby blue and white.
[Reply]

2-tone is the only way 2-go with it... :-)

I was born in '57 and like VWs- I guess that makes me an old VW fan.

Perhaps you meant 'any fans of old VWs?' :-) Although he's young, my BIL has a VW Thing that he restored to all of its glory. Looks great! Just waiting for a ride in it. :-)
